Abstract
Novel silicon carbide nanostructures, beaded nanochains, are prepared from thecarbothermal reduction of a carbonaceous silica xerogel with cetyltrimethylammoniumbromide and lanthanum nitrate as additives. The nanochains consist of a stemwith a diameter of about 50 nm and uniform beads with diameters of 100–200 nm.It is demonstrated that the tensile strength of an epoxy composite filled withthe SiC nanochains improves significantly due to the unusual morphology of thenanochains.
